Síonfest 1

Síonfest Björnsk 2016 will be the first edition of the Síonfest, the national selection event to determine the Dalérín representative in the Maia Song Contest.

All countries are invited to vote in the selection.

Participants
Ever since the announcement was made there has been an influx of known and unknown Dalérín artists wanting to represent Daléríqa. The Head of Delegation Maríana Fullsa, a jury consisting of Music professionals and every day Dalérín people narrowed down the entries received to 15 final entries.

These 15 entries went on to compete in a televised Semi-Final where the Top 5 will make it to the Final.

Semi Final
The Semi Final was held on the 8th of June, 2016. Originally only the Top 5 were to pass onto the final, however due to a tie for 5th place and with no other way to break the tie, DBN decided to allow all 6 songs to qualify.
